Nature's Wastefulness

January 24

January 25

January 27

so Nature’s wastefulness seems quietly obscene.
It’s been doing that all week:
making beauty,
and throwing it away,
and making more.

To capture our wild variations on winter over the past week, I photographed my same North Amherst backyard scene on three different days, from January 24 to today. Borrowing from Mark Twain (and countless others over the years), “If you don't like the weather in New England, just wait a few minutes." More beauty appears to be on the way tomorrow into Monday!
